Not every stain lifts the same way, which is why a real whitening consult starts by figuring out whether discoloration sits on the surface or deeper in the tooth. Extrinsic staining from food and drink is typically the fastest kind to lift with professional treatment. Intrinsic staining — from certain medications or old trauma — sometimes needs veneers or bonding instead of whitening alone.
In-office treatment uses a stronger gel than anything sold over the counter, applied under supervision to protect your gums. Fitted trays let you maintain results at home between office visits.
Diet matters just as much after whitening as the treatment itself — coffee, wine, and tobacco start re-staining enamel within days if habits don't change. Occasional touch-ups, rather than repeating a full treatment, tend to be all that's needed to hold onto results.
Higher peroxide concentration than store-bought kits, applied under supervision for safety. Concentration and exposure time are both adjusted based on your enamel and sensitivity history.
Sensitivity is monitored throughout, with treatment adjusted if it becomes uncomfortable. The barrier is checked and reapplied as needed rather than set once and forgotten.
A single session is usually enough for visible brightening, unlike gradual take-home-only kits. Before-and-after shade comparisons are typically taken so the change is measurable, not just a guess.
Fitted trays extend your results well past the initial in-office treatment. Trays are molded to your teeth specifically, unlike the generic boil-and-bite kind sold in stores.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
